In spite of rapid economic growth since the
end of the civil war, most of Mozambique's population is employed in
subsistence agriculture. The government depends heavily on official development
assistance, which finances about one-fifth of GDP. The country has an excellent
tourism potential, owing in part to its geographical closeness to Johannesburg.
Food for Thought
“Africa
is where business is being redefined. What is happening here will actually
teach us a fair bit about what the nature of business will be over the next century.”
